In that circumstance, if one oversized item is too large, are all
changes to the contact reverted?  I updated two contacts, one with
photo and one without.  I added an email to both.  Google and Evo show
the updated data correctly, but after syncing with the phone, only the
photo-less contact has been updated.

Yea - terminal says that, and disabling dumpData and printChanges fixes
the delay.  It seems weird that the backup is taking so long - prior to
the photos being added, backups took no more than 5 or 10 seconds.

Sure - the log records the reported model as "Nokia 3720c".  In case the
software version matters, that is recorded as "V 10.16 07-12-09 RM-518
(c) N."

That sounds good to me - I'm happy to test anything you need.  I gave
it a shot, and think I have the right idea, but can't figure out how to
put the pieces together.

Thanks,
